Discuss Genesis 3 Page 22

Admin you posted part 2 but not 1. The comment will be difficult for the recipient to understand context. I hope it wasn't lost.

I think you mean the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Gen 2:17.

Pray to be subtitled like a serpent.

You can't see spirits with your physical eyes.

You can't see spiritual things with your physical eyes. Garden of Eden could be back in heaven.

It's not in the bible. God commanded man not to eat the fruit from the tree of life.

need help

In Genesis 2:16,17.

Na satin was there to lookover adam and his lovely, , but ? where in bible does GOD say Do Not [touch the fruit ]?

Bob Hilt , satin was the first morning star there to be [with] a @ e but , more interesting did GOD say donot touch the fruit can,t find bible , you ?

Genesis 3 the serpent in the garden that tempted Eve.

Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that OLD SERPENT old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

Is the serpent a mere figure of speech?

Was Eve speaking with a beautiful angel as mentioned in Ezekiel?

Ezekiel Chapter 28:15 Thou [wast] perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. (Created, not born)

16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with VIOLENCE violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

(war in heaven Revelation 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,)

17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy BEAUTY beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy BRIGHTNESS brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.

2 Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of LIGHT light.

I do not lean towards the talking snake thing personally.

Use the search box when you first enter this website. Put in flaming sword and it will bring up all scriptures that say flaming or sword. Look for the verse with both words.

You can even scroll down to the commentary box that will briefly explain your verse.

Where is the flaming sword and the Cherubims that protected the Garden

Chris,

Matthew 16:26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Matthew 16: 22-24 It is an offense to the Lord for us to live

according to the soul.

Romans 16:19-20 Be wise about what is good, Innocent about what is evil. 1 Corinthians 13:2 You're nothing without love. 1John 4:8 God is Love.

Sj, do you consider the Tree of the Knowledge of Good & Evil to be a bad tree? I actually see it as a wonderful tree, it had lovely tasty fruit & Adam & Eve wasn't poisoned in the flesh by eating it. However, to be lukewarm as a Christian is of course a sad state to be in & one needs to get back to being right with God. So, how is the connection made between this good tree & a lukewarm/backslidden Christian?

You're right about both trees being in the midst of the garden. I just focused on this chapter.

We can keep from being beguiled by the devil by loving.

1 John 4:8

"He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love

1 Corinthians 13:2

"And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing."

Thank you, I didn't notice that before. Both trees, the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of Good and the knowledge of evil were in the middle of the Garden. I always pictured them as somewhere in the back, sort of out of the way, hidden.

I know what you are saying but I don't think that that has any particular meaning in this case. It is interesting that they would be in the middle and that may have made them easy to find; but apart from that. I don't see any other significant in their location; but in revelations; it specifically refers to the 7 churches I think, each having significant problems, none of them being true believers in Christ and God. They were sort of in the middle of the road; poor teachers; not doing the job that they should have being doing, sort of like the church when Jesus went there

Thanks again, it was very interesting and it is always good to learn I think. I don't know why I thought that they would have been sort of hidden. I don't think that God would hid these trees from man; but I think that He did with the tree of life from Adam after Adam sinned.

The point is middle. The forbidden tree is in the middle of the garden.

To be luke warm is to be in the middle.

To be luke warm is to be on the middle.

It is amazing how short was the time that Adam spent in the Garden before sinning. It was not long at all before he and eve became the first cave people.

I don't understand your comment: I don't think that Gen 3: 3 and Rev 3:6 are related. Gen is at the beginning of creation and revelations is not and 3:6 applies to something else

Chris,

Paul's understanding of sin and its transmission through Adam in Romans 5:12 is absolutely correct!

The beginning of sin and its transmission is in no way affected by the creation of all the races in Genesis 1:26-28, as well as the beginning of the race through Adam in Genesis 2:7; eventually becoming known as "Hebrews" (look at Genesis 40:15, Exodus 3:18, etc.)

Original sin was not transmitted through a particular bloodline, but rather through the Spirit and the Will of God.

Had Adam fulfilled his responsibility, then there would have been no need for the promise of Genesis 3:15, and we would all be living in the 3rd dispensation of time now, right here; heaven on earth. But, that did not happen, and 6000 years later we are still waiting for His second Coming.

If you want to believe that all races of humans came from Adam that is your choice. That does not affect the saving grace of Jesus Christ. I have given you Biblical reference (man, flesh, Sons of God, giants, the flood, dispensations of time) for the position I make, as well as definitions of Hebrew words for assistance and reference.

Your Biblical explanation (or lack of one) concerning HOW the other races came to be upon the earth reinforces your shaky position on such an important topic(s).

I will restate that GOD specifically refers to "nations" and "gentiles" and "heathen" and "people" as FOREIGN to the specific tribe and nation and people known as Israel. God making this distinction throughout ALL Scripture should be a big clue.

Gold does not lie in the streets and on the pathways; we have to dig a little to find it. So also is the understanding of the Word of God! ( 2Timothy 2:15)

The Bible was not written in English, it was originally written in Hebrew, Chaldean, and Greek (N.T.). A Bible Concordance is a must for every Bible student (that doesn't know Biblical Hebrew, Chaldean, and Greek).

Greetings Joan, where did Cain get his wife?

I believe the answer to that lies in a careful reading of the book of Ezekiel 31.

Does one build a city with just a husband and a wife as Cain did Genesis 3:17

Genesis 3:3

"But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die."

Revelations 3:16

So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth

Geraldine Cole

You are correct. Adam was put in charge of the Garden. The spreading of sin to all of mankind has resulted from the inability of Adam to uphold the Law of God and resist what Satan was offering him.

Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: Romans 5:12

Eve, however, was also there. In fact, Eve was the first person to accept Satan's proposal, look at Genesis 3:6.

Both Adam AND Eve received punishment for what happened in the Garden, look at Genesis 3:16.

The transgression that took place in the Garden of Eden had nothing to do with a piece of fruit. Both Adam and Eve were wholly seduced by Satan.

After the act took place:

Eve's punishment concerned child birth.

Satan's punishment concerned the separation of "seed" from the woman ( Genesis 3:15).

Eve found Satan to be "desirable" and "pleasant to the eyes" ( Genesis 3:6, 2 Corinthians 11:3). The punishment by our heavenly Father upon Eve, (and all of womankind) included her desire to now be focused upon her "husband, and he shall rule over thee" Genesis 3:16.

A few minutes of research into Scripture and a Bible Concordance will likely bring this topic into better light.

A man should not blame a woman for a mistake he made. Neither should a woman blame a man for a mistake she made.

It seems like nobody is doing their job anymore, male or female. How far ahead would mankind be if we took responsibility for our actions!!!

Luke 6:42

When I pray against hell and demons hurting Gods people: I always remind Satan that he's going back to hell !!!

He doesn't want to hear that.

I'm here if you need me.

You did not offend me. My phone died and had to plug it in....and get sleep. I have health problems too; but that is never an excuse not to study Gods Word.

I think you may need a New Bible WITH center of the page columns, concordance & dictionary. Some of this study needs a way to see the Hebrew meaning of words. Most Old Testament was written in Hebrew. :/

Sometimes I find really good Bibles at resale stores, like Goodwill. Just wait to buy till you see one with center of page columns.

Most people hate (can I use that word?) Benny Hinn. He has the best explanation of spiritual warfare. I'd be dead if not for that.

He has a 5 HOUR teaching on YouTube you can listen to. If we can get past "the vessel" that God chose to deliver the information through, we'd be able to help people who are oppressed.

He starts out with the foundation of where demons came from. Which is the part that interests you. Before, during and after Genesis.

I investigated where he was pulling in that information and found that he was using the Center Column references to other scriptures that supported what's going on in Genesis, BUT with some Hebrew word definition. The best way to do that is to write the verses down on paper (with the verse name). It's going to take a lot of time. Note: INHABITANTS (you can use the KJV website to search and read verses). Inhabitants seem to be the evil angels who had bodies: that inhabited the land, married, built cities and caused God to be very angry. When God got finished with them they didn't have bodies anymore and Satan was in hell until the Garden of Eden; where he appears as a snake.

Several people in my family are autistic and it doesn't mean you can't learn or teach others. Just pray and send all your questions to the Source: Jesus Christ and Holy Spirit. Jesus said I do what I see my Father doing. Holy Spirit teaches us.

Just get that study Bible; spiral notebooks and you'll be ready to go. See you later :)

Thank you Chris for helping me out, I thought I had it in my notes and I knew it was in there. I just want yall to know I appreciate what you are doing. Back on the law subject I will follow our laws here until they go against God's law then I go with God. Thanks again.
